About Steven
Steven Brokob is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Virginia with 12 years of clinical experience.
Background and approach
He works with people facing a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addiction, mood disorders such as bipolar and depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, self-esteem struggles, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting and fatherhood challenges, ADHD, and career or life-purpose questions.
Additional areas he attends to include chronic pain and illness, codependency, communication problems, substance use concerns, isolation and loneliness, and financial stressors.
Drawing on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques, he emphasizes helping clients identify thinking patterns, increase emotional awareness, and develop practical coping skills. His style prioritizes empathy and a nonjudgmental stance while supporting clients to articulate personal goals and build on strengths.
Sessions aim to combine insight with actionable strategies that address both thoughts and daily habits. Brokob’s background includes extensive work in community mental health and crisis settings, and he brings a perspective shaped by those clinical roles.
He practices in English and offers therapy via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Steven uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors; CBT often focuses on practical skills for managing anxiety, mood problems, and daily habits. He also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy which encourages people to clarify values, accept difficult internal experiences, and take committed action toward meaningful goals. Client-centered techniques are used to create an empathic, nonjudgmental environment where the client's priorities guide the work.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He works with clients to explore which methods fit their needs and goals, combining elements from different approaches as appropriate and adjusting over time based on progress and preference.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats allow sessions to fit into busy schedules and provide multiple ways to communicate depending on comfort and situational needs, making it easier to maintain continuity of care while working on coping skills, emotional awareness, and behavior change.
